Students will identify the character of the story and will be able to describe something about the character.


Pre-Assessment:

I'm going to read a story called Maisy's Pool. I want you to listen to what happens in the story.

Draw what happened in the beginning.
Draw what happened in the middle.
Draw what happend in the end.

Now tell me the story in your own words from the beginning.


Post-Assessment:

The Paperboy by Dav Pilkey

For next year: The picture was a hindrance. Retell was wrong because they got the pictures out of sequence.Some students didn't use the picture to retell the story.Make sure goal matches data.Should the pre-test and the post-test be identical?

We analyzed strengths and obstacles of our data collection. Ruth has a great checklist system. Use occasional anecdotal notes.



Administer next week. Bring materials for Step A for the next unit.
1/12

Students don't appear to be making progress in beginning middle end due to challenges with writing the events.

- Consider giving real experiences.
- Attach "problem" to the middle of the story and "resolution" to the end.

Set personal goals around recording anecdotal notes. Use the language of "problem" for the middle of the story. Consider when to do "Step A" for the next unit.

Strengths:

Events were from the story (good listening).

Oral retell is better than the written.

Obstacles:

Didn't understand vocabulary: beginning, middle, end

Also didn't have words for the shed, garage, shower

Started with the last event! (It's what they remembered the best.)
